Acts 17:21-32
21(NowG1161 allG3956 theG3956 AtheniansG117 andG2532 theG3956 strangersG3581 sojourning thereG1161 spent theirG2532 timeG2119 inG1519 nothingG3762 elseG2087, butG1161 eitherG2228 toG1519 tellG3004 orG2228 toG1519 hearG191 someG5100 newG2537 thingG3762.)
22AndG1161 PaulG3972 stoodG2476 inG1722 theG3956 midstG3319 ofG435 theG3956 AreopagusG697, andG1161 saidG5346, Ye menG435 ofG435 AthensG117, inG1722 allG3956 thingsG3956 IG1161 perceiveG2334 thatG3956 ye are somewhat superstitious.
23ForG1063 asG1722 IG1473 passedG1330 alongG2532, andG2532 observed theG3588 objectsG4574 ofG2316 yourG2532 worshipG4574, IG1473 foundG2147 alsoG2532 anG2532 altarG1041 withG1722 thisG3778 inscriptionG1924, TOG2532 ANG2532 UNKNOWNG50 GODG2316. WhatG3739 thereforeG3767 ye worshipG4574 inG1722 ignoranceG50, thisG3778 set IG1473 forth unto youG5210.
24TheG3956 GodG2316 thatG3778 madeG4160 theG3956 worldG2889 andG2532 allG3956 thingsG3778 therein, heG2532, beingG5225 LordG2962 ofG2316 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093, dwelleth notG3756 inG1722 templesG3485 madeG4160 withG1722 handsG5499;
25neitherG3761 is heG2532 servedG2323 byG5259 men’s handsG5495, asG2532 thoughG2532 heG2532 neededG4326 anythingG5100, seeing heG2532 himselfG846 giveth toG2532 allG3956 lifeG2222, andG2532 breathG4157, andG2532 allG3956 thingsG3956;
26andG2532 heG2532 madeG4160 ofG1537 oneG1520 everyG3956 nationG1484 ofG1537 menG444 forG1909 toG1909 dwellG2730 onG1909 allG3956 theG3956 faceG4383 ofG1537 theG3956 earthG1093, havingG4160 determinedG3724 theirG846 appointedG4160 seasonsG2540, andG2532 theG3956 bounds ofG1537 theirG846 habitation;
27thatG846 theyG846 shouldG2212 seekG2212 GodG2316, ifG1487 haply theyG846 mightG2532 feel afterG2532 himG846, andG2532 findG2147 himG846, thoughG1487 heG2532 is notG3756 farG3112 fromG575 eachG1538 oneG1520 ofG575 us:
28forG1063 inG1722 himG846 weG2532 liveG2198, andG2532 moveG2795, andG2532 haveG1510 ourG2532 beingG1510; asG5613 certainG5100 evenG2532 ofG5100 yourG2532 ownG846 poetsG4163 haveG1510 saidG3004, ForG1063 weG2532 areG1510 alsoG2532 hisG846 offspringG1085.
29BeingG1510 thenG2532 theG3588 offspringG1085 ofG2316 GodG2316, weG2532 oughtG3784 notG3756 toG2532 thinkG3543 thatG2316 theG3588 Godhead isG1510 likeG3664 unto goldG5557, orG2228 silverG696, orG2228 stoneG3037, graven byG2228 artG5078 andG2532 device ofG2316 manG444.
30TheG3956 timesG5550 ofG2316 ignoranceG52 thereforeG3767 GodG2316 overlookedG5237; butG2316 nowG3568 heG3767 commandeth menG444 thatG3956 theyG3767 shouldG2316 allG3956 everywhereG3837 repentG3340:
31inasmuch asG1722 heG846 hath appointedG3724 a dayG2250, inG1722 theG3956 whichG3739 heG846 willG3739 judgeG2919 theG3956 worldG3625 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 byG1722 theG3956 manG435 whomG3739 heG846 hath ordained; whereof heG846 hath given assurance unto allG3956 menG435, inG1722 thatG3739 heG846 hath raisedG450 himG846 fromG1537 theG3956 deadG3498.
32NowG1161 whenG2532 theyG2532 heardG191 ofG4012 theG3588 resurrectionG386 ofG4012 theG3588 deadG3498, someG3588 mocked; butG1161 othersG3588 saidG3004, WeG3778 willG3778 hearG191 thee concerningG4012 thisG3778 yetG2532 againG3825.
